Singapore (Malay Peninsula) Republic of Singapore: At first glance Singapore appears shockingly modern, but this is an undeniably Asian city with Chinese, Malay and Indian traditions. It's these contrasts that bring the city to life.

Hong Kong (China) One of two special administrative regions of the People's Republic of China: Efficient, hushed and peaceful: the transport network is excellent, the shopping centers are sublime, and the temples and quiet parks are contemplative oases. Just remember: Hong Kong is about savoring new tastes, weaving through a human gridlock and humming some dumb Cantopop tune while slurping your noodles.
Dubai (United Arab Emirates) One of the seven emirates: Dubai has made a name for itself as both a shopping paradise and as a place where the sky knows no limits (it's home to one of the world's tallest buildings). Dubai is also a popular transit hub en route to Asia and the Australia from Europe.
Bangkok (Thailand) Krung Thep Maha Nakhon: The Thailand had a rough year, with political and social instability that kept some travelers away. Fortunately the attractions of Thailand kept many travelers coming, if in slightly smaller numbers than in 2009.
Tokyo (Japan) One of the 47 prefectures of Japan: Tokyo, Japan's capital city, is a place where the urgent rhythms of consumer culture collide with the quieter moments that linger from older traditions. It is hectic madness leavened by the most Zen-like calm; a wonderful and worldly culture where tradition constantly mixes with the modern. It's also a good jumping-off point for trips to iconic Mt Fuji. From visiting ancient shrines to the latest in shopping, watching Sumo wrestling to learning calligraphy, the range of things to do in Tokyo is breathtaking.
